Looking for a Manchester-based double bass tutor

[Jadegames]

Hi,

 

Been playing Electric bass for 20+ years but have been wanting to dive into jazz for some time now. Saw a double bass on eBay and took the plunge.

 

I am wondering what the typical rates are for a tutor in the Manchester (M19) area if there are any recommendations anyone has for someone in my situation.

 

I have played in motown and funk bands for years and have a fairly good knowledge of scales, chord types and relationships between them. I just want to start playing UB with good technique.

 

Thanks,

Sophie Sully is a great player and while I've never had any lessons from her, I've no doubt she's also a top teacher

Thanks for the suggestion. My UB is in the loving care of Sam Wells to repair. Once I get it back I'll try contacting Sophie
